What does the government have to do in order to take away someone's citizenship? Hi, I am Jim Hacking, immigration attorney, here in St. Louis, Missouri. People call our office sometimes, wondering if the government can take away their citizenship. Now for someone who is a natural-born citizen that is someone who has not gone through the naturalization process, the US government cannot revoke your citizenship. There is no mechanism under federal law to allow the government to strip someone of their citizenship, if they've been born in the country. Now if you've gone through the naturalization process, there is a method by which you can be, what's called denaturalized. That is that you get your citizenship revoked. Really the only way that can happen is if you committed some kind of fraud during the naturalization process. For instance, let's say that you naturalized as John Smith, but in reality your name was George Jones. In that kind of a situation, if the ImmigrationService can show that you commit fraud during the actual naturalization process, not that you committed some kind of bank fraud or other fraud, but specifically within the naturalization process, then there's a chance that you could get denaturalized. It is a very high standard. Now the way that it works is the federal government has to bring a lawsuit in federal court, challenging your naturalization and demonstrating by clear, convincing and unequivocal evidence that you committed fraud. It's the government's burden to strip someone of their citizenship and it's a very high burden indeed. We've been contacted by a couple of people, where the US attorney or the Immigration Service has threatened to do it, but so far we haven't encountered any of these cases. We'd be very interested in fighting out one of these cases, but so far we haven't had the opportunity. With that high burden and with the fact that the government has to go to federal court and convince a federal judge who is non-elected and who's not beholden to the Department of Justice, we think there's a good chance that in such a case, it'd be very difficult for the government to meet this very high burden. Now back in 1996, Congress changed the law to allow the Attorney General to denaturalized people through an administrative process, but there was a large challenge brought to that law and the law was struck down as it was applied by the Immigration Service. The court concluded that the regulations promulgated by the Immigration Service were not sufficiently tied to the statute and that the only way that you can denaturalize someone is through this federal court mechanism. That is the government's going to have to go through that lawsuit and prove by clear, convincing and unequivocal evidence that the alien who was naturalized commit that fraud. If you have any questions about this, if you're worried about your citizenship or if you've been nationalized and you're hearing rumblings that someone's going to come after your citizenship, you should feel fairly confident that that's going to be hard for the government to pull off, but if you want to ask us any questions about it or talk through the process with us, give us a call (314) 961-8200, thanks.

It turns out, renouncing your citizenship to a given nation is generally a fairly simple affair in many nations of the world. It doesn’t even usually cost that much. For example, in the UK- fittingly for a country stereotypical known for its aversion to social conflict- renouncing citizenship can be done by mail and costs a mere £272.

http://glr.com/cln This video is an "reenactment" of my RenunciationCeremony at the U.SEmbassy in Asuncion, Paraguay. The presentation here is less formal, but will give you a clear idea of the essential act of renunciation: taking the Oath.
On the video here the actual oath, the actual losing of U.S.Citizenship took under 90 seconds. Listen to the words of the Oath carefully. It is the transition from being American to not being American.
The complete renunication process will take longer than 90 seconds of course and require two trips to the US Embassy. I've written a book detailing my experience and also included a copy of all the forms that were involved in the process as I filled them out. You can see how little information is actually required.
Whether you are an expat seriously thinking about renouncing your U.S. Citizenship, casually pondering it, or just interested in the story of someone that went from being a U.S. Citizen to having no nationality at all, you can find "How to Renounce Your U.S. Citizenship in Two EasySteps" on Amazon.com in Paperback and Kindle formats: http://www.amazon.com/Renounce-Your-U-S-Citizenship-Steps/dp/999532895X
Remember, you don't need any reason to renounce. As an American Citizen you have the right to renounce your Citizenship. It is not important if you are angry about FACTA, U.S. Military actions around the world, the Welfare State, or anything else. Maybe you feel as I did, that I had simply outgrown the United States.

ABOUT NOMAD CAPITALIST
Andrew Henderson travels to nearly 30 countries every year to stay up to date on the latest legal strategies for entrepreneurs and investors to pay less tax, grow their money faster, and build their personal freedom.
Andrew started Nomad Capitalist to help people like you follow his five magic words: "go where you're treated best". He has personally started foreign companies, opened offshore bank accounts, and obtained multiple second passports.
He also learned the hard way that perpetual information seeking is often the biggest barrier to getting the results you want. Many entrepreneurs spend months and even years constantly researching how to pay less in tax or live overseas, but are afraid to make the jump.
As a result, they get stuck and keep paying a fortune in taxes and never get the lifestyle they deserve.
Nomad Capitalist's Youtube channel is based on Andrew's vision that focusing on the end result, rather than the latest shiny object, is the best way to actually obtain the benefits of the Nomad Capitalist lifestyle.

The National Sports Daily

The National Sports Daily, simply referred to as The National, was a sports-centered newspaper published in the United States beginning on January 31, 1990. The newspaper was based in New York City, was printed tabloid format,
and was published five days a week.

The National was an American attempt to emulate the model of several international all-sports publications, such as La Gazzetta dello Sport (Italy), L'Equipe (France), and others. The paper was founded by Mexican-American media mogul Emilio Azcárraga Milmo, who had owned Mexican television conglomerate Televisa and whose family had founded Univision. Azcárraga was also the chief financier for the paper and used the success of the international sports papers as his inspiration for founding The National.

Details of its launch were announced on 21 November, with further information given at a Scottish National Party (SNP) rally the following day. It was launched on a five-day trial basis against the backdrop of a general decline in newspaper sales, with an initial print-run of 60,000 copies for its first edition, but this was increased the following day as a result of public demand, and Newsquest decided to print it on a permanent basis after healthy sales continued throughout the first week. By January 2015, daily sales had fallen to below 20,000. The first front page carried a story about charities urging devolution of powers over welfare legislation to Scotland.

Citizenship in the United States

Citizenship in the United States, being a citizen, is a status that entails specific rights, duties and benefits. Citizenship is understood as a "right to have rights" since it serves as a foundation for a bundle of subsequent rights, such as the right to live and work in the United States and to receive federal assistance.

There are two primary sources of citizenship: birthright citizenship, in which a person is presumed to be a citizen provided that they are born within the territorial limits of the United States, or other circumstances existing at the time of their birth (for example, citizenship of a parent), and naturalization, a process in which an immigrant applies for citizenship and is accepted. These two pathways to citizenship are specified in the Citizenship Clause of the Constitution's 1868 Fourteenth Amendment which reads:

National citizenship signifies membership in the country as a whole; state citizenship, in contrast, signifies a relation between a person and a particular state and has application generally limited to domestic matters. State citizenship may affect (1) tax decisions and (2) eligibility for some state-provided benefits such as higher education and (3) eligibility for state political posts such as U.S. Senator.

Supreme Tribunal of Justice (Venezuela)

The Supreme Tribunal may meet either in specialized chambers (of which there are six: constitutional, political/administrative, electoral, civil, criminal, and social) or in plenary session. Each chamber has five judges, except the constitutional, which has seven. Its main function is to control, according to the constitution and related laws, the constitutionality and legality of public acts.

The Supreme Tribunal's 32 justices (magistrados) are appointed by the National Assembly and serve non-renewable 12-year terms. Appointments are made by a two-thirds majority, or a simple majority if efforts to appoint a judge fail three times in a row. Under article 265 of the 1999 Constitution, judges may be removed by a two-thirds majority of the National Assembly, if the Attorney General, Comptroller General, and Human Rights Ombudsperson have previously agreed a "serious failure" and suspended the judge accordingly.

Andrew Henderson travels to nearly 30 countries every year to stay up to date on the latest legal strategies for entrepreneurs and investors to pay less tax, grow their money faster, and build their personal freedom.
Andrew started Nomad Capitalist to help people like you follow his five magic words: "go where you're treated best". He has personally started foreign companies, opened offshore bank accounts, and obtained multiple second passports.
He also learned the hard way that perpetual information seeking is often the biggest barrier to getting the results you want. Many entrepreneurs spend months and even years constantly researching how to pay less in tax or live overseas, but are afraid to make the jump.
As a result, they get stuck and keep paying a fortune in taxes and never get the lifestyle they deserve.
Nomad Capitalist's Youtube channel is based on Andrew's vision that focusing on the end result, rather than the latest shiny object, is the best way to actually obtain the benefits of the Nomad Capitalist lifestyle.

Trump Creates “Denaturalization” Task Force To Strip People Of Their US Citizenship

Trump Creates “Denaturalization” Task Force To Strip People Of Their US Citizenship

Trump Creates “Denaturalization” Task Force To Strip People Of Their US Citizenship

The Trump administration is taking a page out of the Red Scare playbook, and he’s created a Denaturalization Task Force. This task force will be in charge of finding naturalized citizens in the US and actually STRIPPING them of their US citizenship. The last time this was done by the federal government was when Joseph McCarthy led the Red Scare, but Trump liked that so much he decided to copy those techniques. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

You know one of the things that I've learned from the Trump administration is that you should never ever think that well, things can't get any worse, because Donald Trump will always do whatever it takes to prove to you that he's going to continue to make things worse. On July 5th, the day after the 4th of July, where everybody's celebrating how great America is, it was revealed that not only is the Trump administration trying to end a program by which immigrants can come into the United States, serve in our armed forces, protecting our country, and then they get citizenship. He's trying to end that because no reason really, but he's also created several weeks ago a de-naturalization task force here in the United States.
Here is what the de-naturalization task force is going to be doing. They're going to be going through immigration records and naturalization records which are people who've come to the United States. They went through the legal process. They did everything correctly, and they became US citizens. His little task force is going to go through and start flagging people who are US citizens and saying we're going to revoke you. We're going to revoke you, we're going to revoke you.
They're going to strip people of their US citizenship just so that they can deport them. These are people who went through the background checks. They passed all the tests. They did everything necessary, and now this administration wants to strip them of their US citizenship, strip American soldiers of their US citizenship as well, just so we can ship them back home, for no reason whatsoever other than for Trump to pander to his racist base.
That is what this about. 100%. Because you can't sit there and say, as Trump has done so many times, we only want the people who come here legally, but then take the people who came here legally and strip them of their citizenship and send them back. We have passed that. That talking point that all Republicans have been throwing out recently was just proven to be a big pile of crap. They don't believe that. They don't want them here if they came here legally, illegally, as a child. It doesn't matter. They want them gone.
If you're not a white well to do dude, guess what? You're on the chopping block right now. It doesn't matter if you have followed the law your entire life, no matter where you came from. You came here, you got your citizenship papers. You stand up every time you hear the pledge of allegiance, you wrap yourself in the American flag. Oh well. Not good enough for the Trump administration because your skin color, your culture doesn't match what they want to see when they walk down the street. That's what this is about. This isn't about people coming here legally or illegally. It's about the color of their skin and the culture that they came from.

Renounce U.S. Citizenship in under 90 Seconds.

http://glr.com/cln This video is an "reenactment" of my RenunciationCeremony at the U.SEmbassy in Asuncion, Paraguay. The presentation here is less formal, but will give you a clear idea of the essential act of renunciation: taking the Oath.
On the video here the actual oath, the actual losing of U.S.Citizenship took under 90 seconds. Listen to the words of the Oath carefully. It is the transition from being American to not being American.
The complete renunication process will take longer than 90 seconds of course and require two trips to the US Embassy. I've written a book detailing my experience and also included a copy of all the forms that were involved in the process as I filled them out. You can see how little information is actually required.

In a nation where not all citizenships are created equal, who gets to determine who's allowed to become and remain a U.S.Citizen?

What does the government have to do in order to take away someone's citizenship? Hi, I am Jim Hacking, immigration attorney, here in St. Louis, Missouri. People call our office sometimes, wondering if the government can take away their citizenship. Now for someone who is a natural-born citizen that is someone who has not gone through the naturalization process, the US government cannot revoke your citizenship. There is no mechanism under federal law to allow the government to strip someone of their citizenship, if they've been born in the country. Now if you've gone through the naturalization process, there is a method by which you can be, what's called denaturalized. That is that you get your citizenship revoked. Really the only way that can happen is if you committed some kind of fraud during the naturalization process. For instance, let's say that you naturalized as John Smith, but in reality your name was George Jones. In that kind of a situation, if the ImmigrationService can show that you commit fraud during the actual naturalization process, not that you committed some kind of bank fraud or other fraud, but specifically within the naturalization process, then there's a chance that you could get denaturalized. It is a very high standard. Now the way that it works is the federal government has to bring a lawsuit in federal court, challenging your naturalization and demonstrating by clear, convincing and unequivocal evidence that you committed fraud. It's the government's burden to strip someone of their citizenship and it's a very high burden indeed. We've been contacted by a couple of people, where the US attorney or the Immigration Service has threatened to do it, but so far we haven't encountered any of these cases. We'd be very interested in fighting out one of these cases, but so far we haven't had the opportunity. With that high burden and with the fact that the government has to go to federal court and convince a federal judge who is non-elected and who's not beholden to the Department of Justice, we think there's a good chance that in such a case, it'd be very difficult for the government to meet this very high burden. Now back in 1996, Congress changed the law to allow the Attorney General to denaturalized people through an administrative process, but there was a large challenge brought to that law and the law was struck down as it was applied by the Immigration Service. The court concluded that the regulations promulgated by the Immigration Service were not sufficiently tied to the statute and that the only way that you can denaturalize someone is through this federal court mechanism. That is the government's going to have to go through that lawsuit and prove by clear, convincing and unequivocal evidence that the alien who was naturalized commit that fraud. If you have any questions about this, if you're worried about your citizenship or if you've been nationalized and you're hearing rumblings that someone's going to come after your citizenship, you should feel fairly confident that that's going to be hard for the government to pull off, but if you want to ask us any questions about it or talk through the process with us, give us a call (314) 961-8200, thanks.

It turns out, renouncing your citizenship to a given nation is generally a fairly simple affair in many nations of the world. It doesn’t even usually cost that much. For example, in the UK- fittingly for a country stereotypical known for its aversion to social conflict- renouncing citizenship can be done by mail and costs a mere £272.

http://glr.com/cln This video is an "reenactment" of my RenunciationCeremony at the U.SEmbassy in Asuncion, Paraguay. The presentation here is less formal, but will give you a clear idea of the essential act of renunciation: taking the Oath.
On the video here the actual oath, the actual losing of U.S.Citizenship took under 90 seconds. Listen to the words of the Oath carefully. It is the transition from being American to not being American.
The complete renunication process will take longer than 90 seconds of course and require two trips to the US Embassy. I've written a book detailing my experience and also included a copy of all the forms that were involved in the process as I filled them out. You can see how little information is actually required.
Whether you are an expat seriously thinking about renouncing your U.S. Citizenship, casually pondering it, or just interested in the story of someone that went from being a U.S. Citizen to having no nationality at all, you can find "How to Renounce Your U.S. Citizenship in Two EasySteps" on Amazon.com in Paperback and Kindle formats: http://www.amazon.com/Renounce-Your-U-S-Citizenship-Steps/dp/999532895X
Remember, you don't need any reason to renounce. As an American Citizen you have the right to renounce your Citizenship. It is not important if you are angry about FACTA, U.S. Military actions around the world, the Welfare State, or anything else. Maybe you feel as I did, that I had simply outgrown the United States.

The Trump administration is taking a page out of the Red Scare playbook, and he’s created a Denaturalization Task Force. This task force will be in charge of finding naturalized citizens in the US and actually STRIPPING them of their US citizenship. The last time this was done by the federal government was when Joseph McCarthy led the Red Scare, but Trump liked that so much he decided to copy those techniques. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

You know one of the things that I've learned from the Trump administration is that you should never ever think that well, things can't get any worse, because Donald Trump will always do whatever it takes to prove to you that he's going to continue to make things worse. On July 5th, the day after the 4th of July, where everybody's celebrating how great America is, it was revealed that not only is the Trump administration trying to end a program by which immigrants can come into the United States, serve in our armed forces, protecting our country, and then they get citizenship. He's trying to end that because no reason really, but he's also created several weeks ago a de-naturalization task force here in the United States.
Here is what the de-naturalization task force is going to be doing. They're going to be going through immigration records and naturalization records which are people who've come to the United States. They went through the legal process. They did everything correctly, and they became US citizens. His little task force is going to go through and start flagging people who are US citizens and saying we're going to revoke you. We're going to revoke you, we're going to revoke you.
They're going to strip people of their US citizenship just so that they can deport them. These are people who went through the background checks. They passed all the tests. They did everything necessary, and now this administration wants to strip them of their US citizenship, strip American soldiers of their US citizenship as well, just so we can ship them back home, for no reason whatsoever other than for Trump to pander to his racist base.
That is what this about. 100%. Because you can't sit there and say, as Trump has done so many times, we only want the people who come here legally, but then take the people who came here legally and strip them of their citizenship and send them back. We have passed that. That talking point that all Republicans have been throwing out recently was just proven to be a big pile of crap. They don't believe that. They don't want them here if they came here legally, illegally, as a child. It doesn't matter. They want them gone.
If you're not a white well to do dude, guess what? You're on the chopping block right now. It doesn't matter if you have followed the law your entire life, no matter where you came from. You came here, you got your citizenship papers. You stand up every time you hear the pledge of allegiance, you wrap yourself in the American flag. Oh well. Not good enough for the Trump administration because your skin color, your culture doesn't match what they want to see when they walk down the street. That's what this is about. This isn't about people coming here legally or illegally. It's about the color of their skin and the culture that they came from.

Can the government take away my citizenship?

Our Website: https://hackinglawpractice.com/
My Podcast: https://immigrationanswershow.com/
What does the government have to do in order to take away someone's citizenship? Hi, I am Jim Hacking, immigration attorney, here in St. Louis, Missouri. People call our office sometimes, wondering if the government can take away their citizenship. Now for someone who is a natural-born citizen that is someone who has not gone through the naturalization process, the US government cannot revoke your citizenship. There is no mechanism under federal law to allow the government to strip someone of their citizenship, if they've been born in the country. Now if you've gone through the naturalization process, there is a method by which you can be, what's called denaturalized. That is that you get your citizenship revoked. Really the only way that can happen is if you committed some kind of fraud during the naturalization process. For instance, let's say that you naturalized as John Smith, but in reality your name was George Jones. In that kind of a situation, if the ImmigrationService can show that you commit fraud during the actual naturalization process, not that you committed some kind of bank fraud or other fraud, but specifically within the naturalization process, then there's a chance that you could get denaturalized. It is a very high standard. Now the way that it works is the federal government has to bring a lawsuit in federal court, challenging your naturalization and demonstrating by clear, convincing and unequivocal evidence that you committed fraud. It's the government's burden to strip someone of their citizenship and it's a very high burden indeed. We've been contacted by a couple of people, where the US attorney or the Immigration Service has threatened to do it, but so far we haven't encountered any of these cases. We'd be very interested in fighting out one of these cases, but so far we haven't had the opportunity. With that high burden and with the fact that the government has to go to federal court and convince a federal judge who is non-elected and who's not beholden to the Department of Justice, we think there's a good chance that in such a case, it'd be very difficult for the government to meet this very high burden. Now back in 1996, Congress changed the law to allow the Attorney General to denaturalized people through an administrative process, but there was a large challenge brought to that law and the law was struck down as it was applied by the Immigration Service. The court concluded that the regulations promulgated by the Immigration Service were not sufficiently tied to the statute and that the only way that you can denaturalize someone is through this federal court mechanism. That is the government's going to have to go through that lawsuit and prove by clear, convincing and unequivocal evidence that the alien who was naturalized commit that fraud. If you have any questions about this, if you're worried about your citizenship or if you've been nationalized and you're hearing rumblings that someone's going to come after your citizenship, you should feel fairly confident that that's going to be hard for the government to pull off, but if you want to ask us any questions about it or talk through the process with us, give us a call (314) 961-8200, thanks.

In this video:
It turns out, renouncing your citizenship to a given nation is generally a fairly simple affair in many nations of the world. It doesn’t even usually cost that much. For example, in the UK- fittingly for a country stereotypical known for its aversion to social conflict- renouncing citizenship can be done by mail and costs a mere £272.

Renounce U.S. Citizenship in under 90 Seconds.

http://glr.com/cln This video is an "reenactment" of my RenunciationCeremony at the U.SEmbassy in Asuncion, Paraguay. The presentation here is less formal, but will give you a clear idea of the essential act of renunciation: taking the Oath.
On the video here the actual oath, the actual losing of U.S.Citizenship took under 90 seconds. Listen to the words of the Oath carefully. It is the transition from being American to not being American.
The complete renunication process will take longer than 90 seconds of course and require two trips to the US Embassy. I've written a book detailing my experience and also included a copy of all the forms that were involved in the process as I filled them out. You can see how little information is actually required.
Whether you are an expat seriously thinking about renouncing your U.S. Citizenship, casually pondering it, or just interested in the story of someone that went from being a U.S. Citizen to having no nationality at all, you can find "How to Renounce Your U.S. Citizenship in Two EasySteps" on Amazon.com in Paperback and Kindle formats: http://www.amazon.com/Renounce-Your-U-S-Citizenship-Steps/dp/999532895X
Remember, you don't need any reason to renounce. As an American Citizen you have the right to renounce your Citizenship. It is not important if you are angry about FACTA, U.S. Military actions around the world, the Welfare State, or anything else. Maybe you feel as I did, that I had simply outgrown the United States.

Who Gets to Be a U.S. Citizen? | AJ+

The Trump administration says it's going to revoke citizenship from people it believes cheated the naturalization process, but this isn't the first time immigrants have had their citizenship threatened. In a nation where not all citizenships are created equal, who gets to determine who's allowed to become and remain a U.S.Citizen?

Trump Creates “Denaturalization” Task Force To Strip People Of Their US Citizenship

The Trump administration is taking a page out of the Red Scare playbook, and he’s created a Denaturalization Task Force. This task force will be in charge of finding naturalized citizens in the US and actually STRIPPING them of their US citizenship. The last time this was done by the federal government was when Joseph McCarthy led the Red Scare, but Trump liked that so much he decided to copy those techniques. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

You know one of the things that I've learned from the Trump administration is that you should never ever think that well, things can't get any worse, because Donald Trump will always do whatever it takes to prove to you that he's going to continue to make things worse. On July 5th, the day after the 4th of July, where everybody's celebrating how great America is, it was revealed that not only is the Trump administration trying to end a program by which immigrants can come into the United States, serve in our armed forces, protecting our country, and then they get citizenship. He's trying to end that because no reason really, but he's also created several weeks ago a de-naturalization task force here in the United States.
Here is what the de-naturalization task force is going to be doing. They're going to be going through immigration records and naturalization records which are people who've come to the United States. They went through the legal process. They did everything correctly, and they became US citizens. His little task force is going to go through and start flagging people who are US citizens and saying we're going to revoke you. We're going to revoke you, we're going to revoke you.
They're going to strip people of their US citizenship just so that they can deport them. These are people who went through the background checks. They passed all the tests. They did everything necessary, and now this administration wants to strip them of their US citizenship, strip American soldiers of their US citizenship as well, just so we can ship them back home, for no reason whatsoever other than for Trump to pander to his racist base.
That is what this about. 100%. Because you can't sit there and say, as Trump has done so many times, we only want the people who come here legally, but then take the people who came here legally and strip them of their citizenship and send them back. We have passed that. That talking point that all Republicans have been throwing out recently was just proven to be a big pile of crap. They don't believe that. They don't want them here if they came here legally, illegally, as a child. It doesn't matter. They want them gone.
If you're not a white well to do dude, guess what? You're on the chopping block right now. It doesn't matter if you have followed the law your entire life, no matter where you came from. You came here, you got your citizenship papers. You stand up every time you hear the pledge of allegiance, you wrap yourself in the American flag. Oh well. Not good enough for the Trump administration because your skin color, your culture doesn't match what they want to see when they walk down the street. That's what this is about. This isn't about people coming here legally or illegally. It's about the color of their skin and the culture that they came from.
